                 STRATTEC SECURITY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


      The following Management's Discussion and Analysis should be read in
conjunction with the Company's accompanying Financial Statements and Notes
thereto and the Company's 1999 Annual Report. Unless otherwise indicated, all
references to years refer to fiscal years.

Analysis of Results of Operations

Three months ended December 26, 1999 compared to the three months ended
December 27, 1998

      Net sales for the three months ended December 26, 1999 were $56.7 million,
an increase of 4 percent compared to net sales of $54.5 million for the three
months ended December 27, 1998. During the current quarter, sales to General
Motors Corporation and Delphi Automotive Corporation were $26.4 million, an
increase of 2 percent over very strong sales levels in the prior year quarter
following the settlement of General Motors Corporation's labor disruption during
the summer of 1998. Sales to the Ford Motor Company were comparable to the prior
year quarter levels due to a combination of model mix changes and lower
Taurus/Sable production. Sales to DaimlerChrysler Corporation increased 18
percent to $8.9 million. The increase was primarily due to increased vehicle
production schedules and higher value mechanical and electrical content in the
locksets the Company supplies. Sales to Mitsubishi Motor Manufacturing of
America increased to $2.2 million compared to $600,000 in the prior year
quarter. This increase is due to the Company supplying locksets on the newly
introduced Mitsubishi Eclipse.

      Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 22.5 percent in the current
quarter compared to 22.7 percent in the prior year quarter. The lower gross
margin is the result of several factors including plant rearrangement costs
associated with the Milwaukee facility, product mix and increased U.S. dollar
costs at the Company's Mexico assembly facility. The increased U.S. dollar costs
are the result of the appreciation of the Mexican peso and higher wage inflation
in comparison to the prior year quarter. The inflation rate in Mexico for the 12
months ended December 1999 was approximately 13 percent while the U.S.
dollar/Mexican peso exchange rate fell to approximately 9.5 in the current year
quarter from approximately 10.0 in the prior year quarter.

      Engineering, selling and administrative expenses were $4.9 million in the
current quarter which is consistent with the prior year quarter.

      Income from operations was $7.9 million in the current quarter, compared
to $7.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increased income from operations
was primarily due to the increase in sales as previously discussed above.

      The effective income tax rate for the current quarter was 39 percent
compared to 38 percent in the prior year quarter. The increase is due to an
increase in the federal statutory tax rate resulting from higher net income
levels as well as an increase in the state effective tax rate. The overall

Six months ended December 26, 1999 compared to the six months ended December 27,
1998

      Net sales for the six months ended December 26, 1999 were $106.4 million,
an increase of 12 percent compared to net sales of $94.9 million for the six
months ended December 27, 1998. Sales to General Motors Corporation and Delphi
Automotive Corporation increased 17 percent to $49.1 million due to increased
production volumes. In addition, labor disruptions at General Motors Corporation
during July 1998 reduced sales to this customer by an estimated $4.4 million
during the prior year September quarter. Sales to the Ford Motor Company were
comparable to the prior year period levels due to a combination of model mix
changes and lower Taurus/Sable production. Sales to DaimlerChrysler Corporation
increased 18 percent to $16.2 million. The increase was primarily due to
increased vehicle production schedules and higher value mechanical and
electrical content in the locksets the Company supplies. Sales to Mitsubishi
Motor Manufacturing of America increased to $4.1 million compared to $1.3 in the
prior year period. This increase is due to the Company supplying locksets on the
newly introduced Mitsubishi Eclipse.

      Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 22.0 percent in the six
months ended December 26, 1999, compared to 22.3 percent in the six months ended
December 27, 1998. The lower gross margin is the result of several factors
including higher production start-up costs relating to the launch of the new
model year 2000 vehicles, plant rearrangement costs associated with the
Milwaukee facility, and product mix. In addition, the gross margin was
negatively impacted as inflationary cost pressures in Mexico over the last 12
months have resulted in higher U.S. dollar costs. The inflation rate in Mexico
for the 12 months ended December 1999 was approximately 13 percent while the
U.S. dollar/Mexican peso exchange rate fell to approximately 9.4 in the six
months ended December 26, 1999, from approximately 9.8 in the prior year period.
The negative impact of these factors was partially offset by a decrease in the
cost of zinc, which the Company uses at a rate of approximately 1 million pounds
per month, during the September quarter. The cost of zinc per pound averaged
approximately $.52 in the quarter ended September 26, 1999, compared to
approximately $.61 in the quarter ended September 27, 1998.

      Engineering, selling and administrative expenses were $9.8 million in the
six months ended December 26, 1999, which is consistent with the prior year
period.

      Income from operations was $13.7 million in the six months ended December
26, 1999, compared to $11.5 million in the prior year period. The increased
income from operations was primarily due to the increase in sales as previously
discussed above.

      The effective income tax rate for the six months ended December 26, 1999,
was 39 percent compared to 37.6 percent in the prior year period. The increase
is due to an increase in the federal statutory tax rate resulting from higher
net income levels as well as an increase in the state effective tax rate. The
overall effective rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due
to the effects of state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company generated cash from operating activities of $16.5 million in
the six months ended December 26, 1999. In the six months ended December 27,
1998, the Company generated $9.4 in cash from operating activities. The
increased generation of cash is primarily due to the reduction in sales to
General Motors during June 1998 and July 1998 as a result of previously
discussed labor disruptions at this customer.

      The Company's investment in accounts receivable decreased by approximately
$6.0 million to $30.1 million at December 26, 1999, as compared to $36.1 million
at June 27, 1999, primarily due to a decrease in outstanding billings for
customer tooling. Inventories increased by approximately $2.5 million at
December 26, 1999, as compared to June 27, 1999 in support of increased sales
levels.

      Capital expenditures during the six months ended December 26, 1999 were
$4.3 million compared to $3.8 million during the six months ended December 27,
1998. The Company anticipates that capital expenditures will be approximately $9
million to $10 million in 2000, primarily in support of requirements for new
product programs and the upgrade and replacement of existing equipment.

      The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized a stock repurchase
program to buy back up to 1,389,395 outstanding shares. A total of 1,303,900
shares have been repurchased as of December 26, 1999, at a cost of approximately
$40.1 million. Additional repurchases may occur from time to time. Funding for
the repurchases was provided by cash flow from operations and borrowings under
existing credit facilities.

      The Company has a $25 million unsecured, revolving credit facility (the
"Credit Facility") which expires October 2001. There were no outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Facility at December 26, 1999. Interest on
borrowings under the Credit Facility are at varying rates based, at the
Company's option, on the London Interbank Offering Rate, the Federal Funds Rate,
or the bank's prime rate. The credit facility contains various restrictive
covenants including covenants that require the Company to maintain minimum
levels for certain financial ratios such as tangible net worth, ratio of
indebtedness to tangible net worth and fixed charge coverage. The Company
believes that the Credit Facility will be adequate, along with cash flow from
operations, to meet its anticipated capital expenditure, working capital and
operating expenditure requirements.

      Inflationary pressures have not significantly impacted the Company over
the last several years, except for zinc and Mexican assembly operations as noted
elsewhere in this Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Year 2000 Compliance

      The Company began working on its Year 2000 readiness project in late 1997.
The project addressed operating systems, the manufacturing operations, customers
and suppliers. The Company is Year 2000 compliant. As of the date of this
report, the Company has no knowledge of any material Year 2000 matters that
could have a material adverse effect on the company's financial condition or
results of operations.

Mexican Operations

      The Company has assembly operations in Juarez, Mexico. Since December 28,
1998, and prior to December 30, 1996, the functional currency of the Mexican
operation has been the Mexican peso. The effects of currency fluctuations result
in adjustments to the U.S. dollar value of the Company's net assets and to the
equity accounts in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
(SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." During the period December 30,
1996, to December 27, 1998, the functional currency of the Mexican Operation was
the U.S. dollar, as Mexico was then considered to be a highly inflationary
economy in accordance with SFAS No. 52. The effect of currency fluctuations in
the remeasurement process was included in the determination of income. The
effect of the December 28, 1998, functional currency change was not material to
the financial results of the Company.

Other

      On October 19, 1999, the Company announced that it had signed a Memorandum
of Understanding with E. Witte Verwaltungsgesellschaft MBH, and its operating
unit, Witte-Velbert GmbH & Co. KG, which details the intent to form a strategic
alliance and joint venture. Witte, of Velbert, Germany, is a privately held, QS
9000 and VDA 6.1 certified automotive supplier with sales of over DM300 million
in their last fiscal year. Witte designs, manufactures and markets components
including locks and keys, hood latches, rear compartment latches, seat back
latches, door handles and specialty fasteners. Witte's primary market for these
products has been Europe. The proposed Witte-STRATTEC alliance provides for the
manufacture, distribution and sale of Witte products by the Company in North
America, and the manufacture, distribution and sale of the Company's products by
Witte in Europe. Additionally, a joint venture company in which each company
holds a 50 percent interest will be established to seek opportunities to
manufacture and sell both companies' products in other areas of the world.

Forward Looking Statements

      A number of the matters and subject areas discussed in this Form 10-Q that
are not historical or current facts deal with potential future circumstances and
developments. These include expected future financial results, product
offerings, global expansion, liquidity needs, financing ability, planned capital
expenditures, management's or the Company's expectations and beliefs, and
similar matters discussed in the Company's Management Discussion and Analysis of
Results of Operations and Financial Condition. The discussions of such matters
and subject areas are qualified by the inherent risk and uncertainties
surrounding future expectations generally, and also may materially differ from
the Company's actual future experience.

      The Company's business, operations and financial performance are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties which could result in material differences in
actual results from the Company's current expectations. These risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, in
particular, relating to the automotive industry, consumer demand for the
Company's and its customer's products, competitive and technological
developments, foreign currency fluctuations and costs of operations.

      Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider
these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The
forward-looking statements made herein are only made as of the date of this Form
10-Q and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such
forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

Item 3  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

      The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes
and holds no derivative financial instruments which would expose the Company to
significant market risk. The Company has not had outstanding borrowings since
December 1997. The Company has been in an investment position since this time
and expects to remain in an investment position for the foreseeable future.
There is therefore no significant exposure to market risk for changes in
interest rates. The Company is subject to foreign currency exchange rate
exposure related to the Mexican assembly operations.
